Pitfalls were:- lower appraisals when it came to exiting a BRRRR (take out refi or cash out refinance after the 3rd "R" in BRRR)- Rents were lower than anticipated- ARV values not coming in similar to above except it was when I was trying to sellin western markets there may be different challenges but in knoxville im sure the RV ratios are a lot better even when it comes to MLS deals however in WA state the RV ratio is .4-.6% of the price when looking at it from a monthly gross rent to price perspective so the cash flow typically has to be forced to even get any at all.

I’m a buy and hold investor myself there are lots of great flippers in San Diego and others doing bigger things on the development side like @Justin R.

We've had a few unit renos go over budget but our general CAPEX and R/m has been well under budget.

Thanks @Anthony R. !
